Become a Bearcat, Experience the Bearcat Advantage
Battle Creek Public Schools is proud to feature the Bearcat Advantage — a new scholarship exclusively available to eligible BCPS graduates that covers up to 100% of college tuition and mandatory fees. The longer your student has been at BCPS, the bigger scholarship they could recieve!
